So far our advent calendar has directed us to turn on the Christmas lights and eat candy canes.
I'd put up the lights just after Hallowe'en when we had a nice warmish day where I could be outside for a while without my mittens on. After everything thing was up (it's not elaborate or anything) I discovered that half of one string wasn't working. Rob got me a replacement last weekend and I was going to put it up yesterday but when I plugged in the lights to see what I was doing the whole string worked! I shovelled off the porch and went inside to enjoy our lights from inside.
The candy canes were so wonderfully Christmasy. I don't think I've every enjoyed one so much.
